Taking Things for Granted.

Oliver Wendell Holmes ia the Fcbruar'
Atlantic.
When n number OF good-humoref
people are setting out, bright anc
early in the morning, on some eXhilar
ating expedition, it it is pleasant tc
notice how lively and expansive they
are. For the first hour they talk all at
once, laughing their words rather thar
speaking them. But rs the forenoon
goes on, one after another drops grad
ually into comparative quiet ana 81
lence. 1t is not that they have ceas
ed to enjoy the excursion and eacl
other, but the effervesecnce OF the I'M
corked animal spirits OF the mornin?
has spent itself
In similar fashion, rs we get or IN
life past the period OF obstreperous
youth we incline to talk less and
write less, especially on the topics
which we have most at heart. The
younger people notice this and think
it is because we are growing lukewarm
on these matters. They deplore us
among themselves, as being "lost lead
ers" or lost followers, OF this and the
other fine cause. But they do not
understand. The thought is deeper
and stronger in Us now. perhaps, than
when it was visible at the surface and
made more noise. We are beginning
to realize the uselessneSs OF perpetual
~ talking, that is ALL II there is a
thing to be said we perier TO wait and
say it only when and where it will hi
something or somebody.
Moreover, il the youngsters will OBJ
serve us little, they may see that We
say Il number of things-pretty forci
bly,. too-by simply taking them fol
granted. They might follow us around,
A and b and c. and q half dozen more
of us elders and listen to our talk fol
whole week without ever hearing
from us q single argument or eXhorta'
ton on the subject, say, OF the Intel
lectual Rights OF Women, or the Ras'
cality OF Thick-and- Thin Partisans,
or the Curse OF the Ignorant Vote.
But they would soon notice that what
we quietly take for granted in our tall,
would furnish q number OF tolerably
strong creeds or platforms. They
might come to the conclusion, too
that this quiet taking ofcertain things
for granted by sensible and vigorous
men and women is not to be despised
as working force, in comparison
with whole parlorsful OF vociferous
clatter.

kah not into the white mains Ways,
and q good deal Of white mans whis-
ky got into him, with the usual result.
At the age OF SO, we have him with
one eye Knocked out and three wives.
He could not last long under these con-
ditions, and we drop the historians
veil over him. Among the seven
wives OF the elder Ma-has-kah, Rant
che wai-me, or the "Female Flying
Pigeon" OF all his wives her record
stands out with most distinguished
honor. She was inclined to conclusive
argument with her one-seventh-share
OF husband. One time when Ma-has-
kah was on his way to Washington,
ne intimated that he would make the
trip without any OF his wives along.
Rant-che. wai-me said nothing, but
after the old man had made two
camps away from his village, in the
evening he was surprised to see the
beloved OF his heart standing over him
with an uplifted tomahawk in her
hand. She pleasantly remarked:
"Am Iyour wife? Are you my husband?
Ii so, / will 60 with you to the Nav
he-hum.ne.cue (the American big
house, and see and shake the hands OF
the In-co.ho.ne," meaning the prcsl-
dent. OF course she went. That toma-
hawk would have passed any woman
anywhere, so far as her husband
was concerned. She was q pref.
ty woman-for an Indian-and
attracted much attention at the
White house. She was loaded with
presents, observed many OF the weak
Jays OF her white sisters, and when
she got home she lectured to the WON
en- OF the village on the folies OF the
other women. In this example Rant
wai-me has been followed by Others
OF her sex. Soon after her return she
had her pretty neck broken by being
thrown from her horse. She was the
youngest OF four sisters who were all
wives oil the distinguished chief after
whom this county was named. She
was popular in the tribe, and her pet
appellation was "The-beantiful-fe-
male-eagle. hat-nies-in-the-air. She
was deeply religious, charitable to the
poor, and friend always to the
whites. Along with her great husband
she Justly should be remembered with
a monuwent to their joint memory.
Oskaloosa was beautiful Indian
girl, the daughter OF an Indian chief OF
the Creeks. She was early captured
by force by Seminole chief, and join
ed to his "harem." He called her "rhe
most beautiful one" which is the
meaning Of Oskaloosa, and our girls
keep right on living out the definition
to the best OF their ability and pas
purse.

less OF sedentary occupations; more

Distinguished for Courtesy.

When the late President Arthur was
in office, he travelled one summer in
Florida. From Jacksonville he went
further south in u steamboat. One
day the boat stopped at the wharf Of
o. town where an immense crowd OF
people had assembled to see the Presi-
dent. Among them were many politi'
clans and men OF influence.
Back in the crowd was a ragged ne
gro lad, holding young eaglet in his
arms. lie had walked twenty miles
to bring this gift to the President, and
now, footsore and covered with dust,
but with his black face beaming with
pleasure, was hurrying across the
gang. PLANK, when he was sternly or.
dered back by the officers OF the boat.
The crowd set on him and forced
him back. Mr.. Arthur caught sight Of
the neero's face. full oil misery and
disappointment, and instantly COM
pretended the situation. He beckon-
ed to the boy, whom he met on the
plank, listened smilingly to the eager
story OF how the eagle had been caught
and brought as gift to the President,
and then carefully explained how i'm
possible it would be for him to carry
it with him on his long journey. He
dismissed the lad with warm thanks
and hearty shake OF the hand, and
sent him away proud and happy.
"Mr. Arthur" said one who knew
him, "may have lacked certain com.
mandine qualities which belong to
greater men, but his courtesy was UNI
failing, and was shown to the man
who blacked his boots as much as to
the members OF his Cabinet"
The potency Of n gracious manner
was shown notably afew years ago by
an incident which occurred in one oil
our large cities. A young girl who had
been seamstress married the son oil
q wealthy and influential family. Her
husband brought her home while his
mother and sisters, with a large num-
Der OF guests, were at their country
seat. 1t was resolved before the bride
arrived that she "should be taught to
know her place." that she must be
made to realize that, although in the
family, she was not OF 1t.
The house was filled with experienced
women OF society, skilled in every
method OF administering snubs, from
the stinaing sarcasm to the smile OF
icy civility. The little woman who was
their intended victim had neither
birth, fortune. experience, nor educa-
ton to defend her. But she had
simple self-respecting manner, soften
ed by the most exquisite courtesy.
at was an armor OF proof said a
spectator. ''If they insulted or snub-
bed her, she was apparently uncon-
scious OF il, and turned to them with
the same gracious, cordial kindness.
She conquered. The dullest woman
amongher enemies at last understood
that the poor little girl was better
bred than herself"
'If you cannot compete with a
man, says Van Holden, lin rank. or
wealth, or knowledge, meet him on the
level ground OF humanity. There you
can always be his equal or SUPERIOR"

Canadian House OF Lords. IL is q sort
